affairs, which they occasionally attempt
to discuss in the oracular vein peculiar
to themselves. They we're completely
mystfed by tho Ohio conventions in
dorsement of Mr.. Sherman, many OF
them assuming that this action formally
nominated Sherman, and that Mr.. Blaine
would return home to run against him
and Cleveland in a triangular popular
contest this fall. An editor informed
his equally sapient readers that Should
Mr.. Blaine decide to contest the Ohio
nomination., Mr.. Sherman will probably
have to give way" An American CORES
pendent says it took him an hour to ex-
plain away the misrepresentation in the
mind OF O member of parliament and of
the ministry that the action of the Ohio
convention was not a formal nomination
Of Mr.. Sherman. Such ignorance on the

cusable, but not 30 in the case OF editors.

The Momnsains on the Moon.

Astronomy With ia opera glass;" by
Garrett z. Serviss, IN Popular Scieuoe
monthly for August: OF course the fret
thing tie observer will wish to see will
be he mountains Of tbs moor, for every
body hes heard of them and tbs most
sluggisn Imagination is stirred by the
thought that u can look off into the
SKY and behold "tbe etsrnal hills of
another planet 'as solla aud substantial
as our own. Bot the chances are that
If left to their own guidance, ninety
nine persons out of o hundred would
choose exactly the wrong time to see
these mountains. at any rate,
that is my experience with
people who have come to
look at tina moon through my telescope.
Unless w8fned beforehand, they inyari,
ably wait until full moon, when the
food OF sunshine poured perpendicular.
ily upon the face of our satellite conceals
its rugged features as e~fectually ps If q
veil had been drawn over them. Begin
your observations with the appear nee
OF the uarrowest crescent of the new
moon, aud follow it as il gradually fills,
and then you will see how beautifully
the advancing line of lunar sunrise re-.
veals the mountains, over whose slopes
and peaks it is climbing, by it's ragged
and sinuous outline. The OBJ
server must keep in mind the fact that
he is looking straight down upon the
tops of the lunar mountains. 1t is like q
view from a balloon. only at a vastly
greater height than any ballon, has ever
attained. Even with g powerful tele-
scope the observer sees the moon at an
apparent distance of several hundred
miles. while, with a field-glass, magnify
ing six diameters, the moon appear as If
forty Thousand miles off. The apparent
distance with Galileo's telescope was
eight thousand miles. Recolleot how
when seen from o great height the rugos-
ities of the eafth's surface fatten out
and disappear and then try to imagine
how the highest mountains on the earth
would look if you were suspended forty
thousand miles above them, and you
will. perhaps, rather wonder at the fact
that the moons mountains can be seen
at all.
